Exhumed eo‐Alpine High‐Pressure Rocks Fed Campanian Turbidites in Eastern Sardinia

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract This study investigates the detrital record of the early orogenic evolution of the Sardinia‐Calabria system, preserved in Upper Cretaceous arenites exposed in eastern Sardinia. Sardinia and Corsica form a continental block that includes a segment of the Alpine orogen and of its former foreland basin.

Limitotipes of Lower Sakmarian and Artinskian stages boundary in the Urals

Литосфера, 2015
The section Usolka and duplicating its section Dal’ny Tulkas (Bashkortostan) are proposed as the stratotypes of the Lower Sakmarian stage boundary and Lower Artinskian stage boundary of the International Stratigraphic scale.

U-Pb geochronology of the South Mountain Batholith, Nova Scotia

, 2018
The South Mountain Batholith (SMB) is a composite peraluminous intrusion in southwestern Nova Scotia and the largest granitoid body in the Appalachian Orogen. The batholith comprises early stage biotite-granodiorite to biotite-monzogranite and a later stage of leucomonzogranite to leucogranite plutons that are associated with numerous sub-economic to ...

Petrogenesis and Tectonic Evolution of Cenozoic Magmatism in the Southernmost Northern Andes: Insights From Zircon Petrochronology

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract This study integrates new zircon U–Pb ages, zircon εHf(t)–δ18O isotopic data, and whole‐rock geochemistry to refine the temporal and spatial framework of magmatism in the southern Northern Andes (SNA) from ∼65 to 6 Ma. The San Lucas, Catamayo, Portachuela, and Gonzanamá batholiths and magmatic suites, along with Late Miocene plutons, display ...

Subsurface Structure and Morphometry of the Wrinkle Ridges in the Late Amazonian Volcanic Unit on Mars

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Wrinkle ridges are widespread compressional tectonic features on Mars and are important records of the planet's global contractional history. However, their formation, evolution and subsequent modification by other geologic processes remain poorly constrained.

Eocene to Miocene U‐Pb Geochronology Evolution of the Rio Grande Rise, Southwestern Atlantic: A Paleoceanographic Approach

Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The Rio Grande Rise (RGR) is a major submarine feature in the South Atlantic that plays an important role in regional oceanographic dynamics. This study presents new U‐Pb geochronology of sedimentary rocks from the RGR, offering direct age constraints on carbonate and apatite embedded within Fe‐Mn crusts and associated foraminifera fossils ...

Permian fluid circulation and deformation along a crustal-scale shear zone in the Montagne Noire gneiss dome (southern French Massif Central)

BSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin
U-Th-Pb LA-ICPMS (Laser Ablation − Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry) has the power to elucidate the timing of metamorphism, deformation, migmatization, and plutonism.

Uplift of the Transantarctic Mountains: Evidence for an Evolving and Long‐Lived Rayleigh‐Taylor Instability

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Rayleigh‐Taylor instabilities within the upper mantle are investigated as a mechanism for the uplift of rift‐margin mountain ranges within the continents. Our focus is on the Transantarctic Mountains (TAM). These mountains form at the margin between East and West Antarctica and have been free from the effects of subduction for about 500 ...

Timing of Dike and Sill Emplacement in the Inner Aureole of the Alta Stock, Utah Determined by Zircon and Monazite Petrochronology

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Detailed geochronology from two compositionally distinct generations of dikes and sills intruded into the Alta metamorphic aureole, north‐central Utah, complement previous geochronologic studies from the Alta stock, providing information on the timing of
